"Why do Danish people wave when they ride a bike?"

What The Denmark | Danish Culture for Expats, Internationals and Danes

Esther is originally from The Netherlands, and moved to Denmark in 2019.

This is the first of a new type of episode on What The Denmark where we speak with people are learning about Danish culture after moving to Denmark.

These interviews, we feel, are a great way to learn practical advice from others adapting to Denmark, but also to get fresh perspectives on things that seem peculiar to outsiders.

Esther and Sam talk about a variety of different topics, including:

  • Similarities between The Netherlands and Denmark (size; old monarchy)
  • Differences (approach to biking; the fact there is LESS rain in Denmark)
  • Advice for people new to Denmark

as well as a chat about liquorice.
